Very Dry.-lt is very dry in some
portions of this county, and the corn is
suffering greatly. a striking pecu-
liarity is the fact that some sections have
been missed by nearly all the rains that
have fallen, while perhaps other places
within mile have had Il good season
Several farmers have told us that the
corn is already hunt beyond revival in
some localities. 1t is much more dry in
the region below town than in the up.

tion OF the executive COMMITTEES and urg-
ing loyal response from all persons

practically suspended in consequence

gines have been housed and placed m

done in order that their machinery may
be better protected. The actual mum.
Der of train hands in Reading
territory does no exceed

say that they do not believe
more than rs per cent Of the call will re-
spond to the call of the Knights of La
Dor. There are thirty eight furnaces To-
Gated along the Reading system, and
many of them, 1t is reported, have not
enough coal to keep them in blast for
more than ten days. Coal dealers and
manufacturers are also short OF coal.
Serious trouble is ~apprehended should
the strike continue any length of time.
The r~aiiroaders held . secret meeting
here Sunday, and discussed the situation
in all Its details. A few of the men
thought the executive committee acted
rather hasty, but voted to stand by the
order. On Tuesday the company will
endeavor to startit trains as usual with
%non-union men, and It will take several
days before a fair estimate of the dimen-
stons of the strike can be given. For
the present at least, coal mining will be
suspended, as the cars can not be got In
to the regions.

A. Alger is dispensing, through his
agents, charitable gifts to 1.-THE probable
amount of fifteen thousand dollars, white
they may reach an even higher figure.
Last year he gave suits OF clothes to 500

scores of houses. Despite the fact that
the general was somewhat imposed upon
then, he will this year repeat his gift on
q much larger scale. Nearly fifteen hum
dred newsboys will be given suits OF
clothes, and ovar one thousand families
will be given a o Of coal and n barrel of
hour each. The dispensing of this charity
will extend over a week, aud meantime
Gen. Alger will leve for his Red Wood
lumber camp in California, to be gone
all winter. None of those who will re
.ceiye coal and -four know Of Gen Alger's
intentions, and the gifts will therefore
come wholly as q surprise.
